Reborn on My Wedding Day: Your Majesty, Depose Me!

[Content warning: Not a pure couple, not a transmigration story, and not a wish-fulfillment novel. The heroine is reborn, but that doesn't mean she's become someone else.] Yunni is reborn. In her previous life, she diligently fulfilled her duties. At home, she served her husband and mother-in-law and managed the harem. Outside, she upheld the royal family's dignity and maintained relations among the clans... In every way, she lived up to her responsibilities as empress. Until one day, she accidentally uncovered an affair: Murong Zheng and his sister-in-law, Tao Jingrou, had been carrying on in secret. To protect the royal family's reputation and keep outsiders from learning the truth, Yunni secretly brought the matter to the empress dowager. The empress dowager was naturally furious. First, she rebuked Murong Zheng for coveting his sister-in-law and violating the laws of human decency. Then she issued an edict ordering Tao Jingrou's death, to preserve the royal family's honor. Even when Murong Zheng threatened to kill himself, the empress dowager refused to relent. Who could have guessed that Murong Zheng would switch one person for another? The woman put to death was merely a palace maid. Tao Jingrou had long since been disguised as a commoner. A year later, Murong Zheng went south and brought her back. Defying everyone's protests, he insisted on making her a noble consort, and Tao Jingrou became the talk of the palace. Yunni's accusation had only separated them for a short time. Murong Zheng's harshest punishment for her was to stop visiting Fenghui Palace, while Tao Jingrou grew to hate her and set out to pull her down from the empress's throne. A prince died young, and a frame-up followed. To protect every member of the Yun family, Yunni asked to be deposed. The three instruments of her execution were brought before her. “Yunni, you deserve to die! You made it impossible for me to go home, and you killed my son! Yunni, you deserve to die! Just die!” The poisoned wine passed her lips. When she opened her eyes again, Yunni had returned to her wedding night with Murong Zheng. Remembering what she had endured in her previous life, Yunni decided to live differently this time...
